Vegan Sweet Potato Stew

right now, i am all about the comfort food. Vegan Sweet Potato Stew makes me feel good all around. it’s good for my mind, body and soul. the cozy warmth, depth of flavor, nourishing ingredients and bold spices brings me joy. pairing Vegan Sweet Potato Stew with organic Jasmine rice is the move! Jasmine rice is delicious and i bought mine frozen from Trader Joe’s! you could also pair Vegan Sweet Potato Stew with quinoa, farro, cauliflower rice or even pasta!

doesn’t this stew have fall dinner written all over it?! i’m really craving the fall weather here in florida and we’ve been lucky with some 65 degree days! it’s wonderful! i’ll tell ya what though, i’m not going to miss winter in ohio lol.

also, i added delicious black beans to this stew for some protein! you can use any kind of beans though- chickpeas would be just as yummy! if you’re looking to add another type of veggie or greens of some sort, go for it because mostly everything works.

want to know what really makes Vegan Sweet Potato Stew perfect? the spices! i used a blend of turmeric, ginger, all spice, cumin and paprika. what a combination of flavors!!

ah, i hope you make Vegan Sweet Potato Stew and savor every bite! there’s something to be said about a technology-free dinner where you can just focus on yourself and truly relish the moment. have the best day you can, stay safe and take care of yourself <3.
